Tales from around the world

World Photography Day

The World Photo Day team chose the 19th of August to celebrate photography because it was the date the French gobernment bought the patent of the daguerrotype “as a gift free to the world” (http://worldphotoday.com/about). And we all thank them for that!

This page opens a section to submit one picture per photographer for a week. You may be an amateour photographer or profesional, as long as you love your camera, you are welcome to celebrate this day. And I just find amazing how many pictures from all over the world you can already find in the page.

You may see the picture I uploaded by clicking here. It’s one of the Demons from Senegal that I share on a previous post.
